Mothersday in Durango – Soccer Shoot out and River Rafting on the Animas!

Claudia — Tue, 10 May 2011 22:10:51 +0000

On the Lighter Side!

Town run – Rafting on the Animas River, going right through Durango

Gotta love living in Durango – I spend mothersday watching my kids play soccer (all weekend) in Durango’s own Durango Shoot Out Soccer Tournament and snuck away on Sunday afternoon to go down the river. It was running at 1000, not real big, but getting there. It was hot out and a beautiful, sunny spring day in Durango! How lucky are we to have our very own river in our back yard, and rafts in the garage. I’m up to two rafts, two duckies, six innertubes… I may have to build another garage.

Front page news on today’s Durango Herald – Eight steps to a sweet summer job as a river rafting guide – How about that? Move to Durango, become a rafting guide and I you bring money I’ll help you buy a house! Call me to discuss rafting or Durango Real Estate. Life is Good!

Life is but a dream

Eight steps to a sweet summer job as a river rafting guide

By Emery Cowan Herald Staff Writer

Article Last Updated: Monday, May 09, 2011 11:06pm

SARAH FRIEDMAN/Herald

Zach Conde shows Mike and Cara Orton how to paddle while they are on the raft. Local rafters say the most important part of a rafter’s job is to make sure the customers leave the river with big smiles.

Life as a raft guide in Durango may seem too good to be true. Paddling down the cool waters of the Animas with the summer sun blazing above and beautiful mountain views around every turn. What could be better?

The good news is, the job can be as sweet as it sounds, but it takes a certain person with the right mentality about life, nature and going with the flow. According to what several of Durango’s veteran paddlers had to say, here’s what it takes to be a rafting guide in Durango:

Love the water

Whether they had grown up on the river or had just stepped foot in a raft a few years ago, all of the guides said they were doing the job because they love being on the water.

Kjirsten Williams, an English teacher at Aztec High School, said she started guiding to make extra money during the summer.

“Now I keep teaching so I can keep rafting,” said Williams, who has been guiding for six years. “I tell my students when I grow up I want to be a full-time river guide.”

There’s a special quality about water that makes it unique from any other outdoor experience, said Josh Lau, a fourth-year river guide veteran.

“There’s something about rivers that draws people into a different human experience,” Lau said. “It connects us all and is such a life force to everything around you.”

Be a people person

The most important part of the job is making sure the customers come away happy, said raft guides. It can be a challenge working with different people’s moods, senses of adventure and desires for the trip, they said.

It’s a combination of hospitality and baby-sitting, said Codye Reynolds, a guide going into her 11th season.

On top of making sure people have a good time, guides also have to help everyone work together to get the raft down the river.

“It’s harder work than you think,” said Aaron Schenk, manager at Four Corners Whitewater.

Let go

Some of the best river trips venture into the deepest wilderness, guides said.

It’s the complete immersion into nature that makes the trip so liberating and fulfilling, Reynolds said.

“I like being removed from technology and white noise that comes from city life,” she said. “You have to relinquish to the river and the wilderness.”

There’s no thinking about unpaid bills or future appointments when your boat is slamming through rapids and winding down the river, she said.

“People have to give up and be where they are,” she said.

Be flexible

The summer season lasts only so long, so most guides have to find ways to make a living the other half of the year. Reynolds has been a barista and a retail employee. Lau blows snow at Telluride and travels cheaply to South America. And Aaron Lombardo, a 20-year guiding veteran, plays in a band, works at a zipline company and owns a chimney sweep company.

Rafting jobs also can take guides away from home to rivers across the country.

“The hardest part of the job are the personal relationships,” Reynolds said. “I’m on the move so much, I don’t get to see my friends and family as much.”

Adapt to the conditions

Guides can never control the weather or the water, so it’s up to them to adapt to whatever the day brings, Schenk said.

During training, students have to practice flipping over the raft then flipping it back, and sometimes the water can be freezing, Williams said. She remembered going through flip training one spring while it was snowing.

Wet suits don’t help much, she said.

Be ready to work hard

Raft guiding isn’t all about floating down the river, Schenk said.

“The job is physically demanding,” he said.

Guides have to stack boats, load gear and be able to paddle with enough force to guide the boat down rapids and between obstacles.

On multiday trips, the preparation work makes for extra-long days, Lombardo said.

“It’s getting up at 5 a.m. to pack up gear, load on the train, spend an eight- or nine-hour day on the water then cooking and cleaning at night,” he said. “It’s like a 15-hour day for us.”

Don’t expect a stellar paycheck

“It’s great living, this life, but it’s not the greatest financial-wise,” said Drew Kensinger, who has been rafting for four years.

It’s a labor of love more than a career, Lau said.

“You’re never going to make a ton of money doing this, so if you want to continue doing it, it’s definitely a lifestyle choice,” he said.

Enjoy

“People come here for vacation, and I get to do it for a living,” Kensinger said.

It’s difficult to name a difficult or terrible part of the job, Schenk said.

“It’s like, ‘Wow, I can get paid to go out on the river and hang out with people and have fun in the sun.’”

Rafters enjoy the high waters in the Smelter Rapid Corner Pocket in Durango in June 2010. Several rafters in Durango say you’ve got to love the water and love people make it as a river guide. Oh, it helps if you’re not looking for a fat paycheck, too.

“This is awesome!” says Cara Orton as she gets ready to go back on the Smelter Rapid on the Animas River. She is rafting with Mike Orton, and is guided by Zach Conde.

Warming weather sends snowmelt down the Animas

The reddish-brown color of the Animas River, which was carrying almost twice as much water Sunday as on Friday, points to melting snow loosening sediment in the mountains.
What confirms that for Jeff Titus, the Animas River commissioner at the Colorado Division of Water Resources in Durango, is the color.
“The reddish color tells me that it’s runoff principally from the Hermosa Creek drainage,” Titus said. “Later, when the water is greenish or yellowish, it will be from snow melting around Silverton.”
At Bakers Bridge (just north of Hermosa), the Animas is not reddish, Titus said.
Commissioners oversee matters involving their assigned river. There’s one for each river in the Southwest Colorado basin, which stretches from east of Pagosa Springs to the Utah line.
The Animas on Friday was flowing at 757 cubic feet per second. On Saturday, the flow jumped to 990 cfs, then to 1,480 cfs on Sunday and 1,820 cfs on Monday.
That means the warm weather is finally reaching the higher snow, he said.
Except for north-facing slopes, snow is gone at elevations below 8,000 feet, Titus said. At Cascade, near Purgatory, there’s no snow, but it’s a different story at 10,000-feet elevation or above – Red Mountain Pass, Mineral Creek near Silverton or Molas Lake.
“Basinwide, the outlook is not good because the snowpack stands at 91 percent of average,” Titus said. “But the Animas drainage is 110 percent of average.”
The surge in the Animas is not lost on rafting company owners.
“We’ve already done a couple of outings,” John Squire, who, with his wife, Karen, owns Durango Rivertrippers, said Monday. “We officially start the season next week, but there’s plenty of water now.”
Robin Fritch, who owns Flexible Flyers Rafting with husband Stephen Saltsman said their season begins this weekend.
“We have water,” Fritch said. “Good weather brings tourism and tourism means rafters.”

Local Durango Humor

Shaheen — Wed, 16 Feb 2011 22:47:15 +0000

Here is some great local Durango humor that I read today in the:

Durango Area Resource Guide 2011

You can get a copy of this great magazine at the Herald (our local newspaper).

Here are a few jokes from the “You know you’re in Durango when…” section:

* You hit a deer, elk or bear and someone stops to take it home for meat.

* There is a correlation between sick days and power days at DMR.

* It could be sunny, windy, hailing, snowing or raining all in the same hour.

* You are late to work because of a “sheep jam” on the highway in Bayfield.

* When you have three part-time jobs arranged around peak hours for skiing and biking.

Another fun section was “Let’s play: Native Tongue” on how to pronounce some local surnames:

* Arboles – Ar bow leez

* Mancos – Main’ cuss

* Kroegers – Kray’ gers

* Ouray – Yoo ray

* Animas – Ann’ ih muss

Fun Stuff, the magazine has tons of valuable local information to offer, do check it out!

Home Values Slide 10%

Shaheen — Wed, 19 Jan 2011 00:00:23 +0000

A great article in the Durango Herald on Monday was headlined as;

“HOME VALUES SLIDE 10% in 2010″

Median home prices dropped more then 10 percent when compared to 2009.

Statistics also showed that more homes sold in 2010 then sold in 2009 which is a good indicator of consumer confidence growing in Durango’s market.

There is a good amount of inventory available right now including many condos. Banks are now offering lending on condos, which has been a challenge in the past.

All in all, statistics are showing slow but gradual improvement across the board.

Happy Holidays from Blue Ribbon!

Shaheen — Tue, 21 Dec 2010 16:48:27 +0000

Season’s Greetings!

We would like to take this opportunity to first and foremost thank you, our clients and friends, for a memorable 2010. It sure seemed like we had a year marked with dramatic changes and challenges.

Some of you took advantage of the opportunities in this market, refinanced at historically low interest rates or bought real estate at reduced prices. Some of you were first time homebuyers that received an $8000 tax rebate! Others are still waiting in the wings for the right deal to come along, or may be trying to sell their property in a tough market.

Regardless of your position in the real estate market, we realized that the need for accurate and up to date information is greater than ever. This year we have ramped up our website and have successfully established our blog as one of Durango’s best sources for real estate statistics! Every Friday we post an update of sales and new listings and we are proud to say that our number of subscribers is steadily increasing.

If you haven’t subscribed to our blog articles, we would like to encourage you to do so at BlueRibbonDurango.com.

This is a good time to reflect on the year passed and look forward to what is ahead, in 2011 and beyond. Durango has seen a slight drop in median home prices coupled with an increase in sales volume. Foreclosures are on the rise, though still very low compared to other areas. The number of homes available for sale remains high, continuing a strong buyer’s market for Durango.

Overall, the recent activity, coupled with a huge pent up demand of potential home buyers who haven’t bought in the past few years, leads me to forecast a healthy albeit slow market recovery. Lack of financing options has hurt sales but we are seeing more and more creative financing options. Incidentally, if you are trying to sell, we would encourage you to explore all possibilities and be creative to get the deal done!

Several positive real estate market headlines over the past few weeks lead us to be hopeful:

“Strong Rebound in Pending Home Sales”, NAR, Dec 2, 2010
“Commercial Real Estate Markets Stabilizing, See slight Improvement in 2011”, NAR, Nov 29, 2010
“Homebuilder Exchange Traded funds up – Sign that Worst is over”, Nasdaq.com, Dec 13, 2010
“Durango a Buyer’s Market”, Durango Herald, Dec 12, 2010

As another year comes to a close we are reminded of just how fortunate we are to have wonderful families and friends, steady business and last but not least we get to live in beautiful Durango and enjoy all the wonderful activities around us. We know that it is the people in our lives that bring real joy and happiness. Together we can overcome anything!

We value your business and are here to help you with all your real estate needs. If you know anyone who could use information on real estate please do refer them our way. We promise to take excellent care of you and them!

Have Happy New Year!

Here’s to a great 2011!
